While she was browsing satellite images of her grandmother's property, she found something that shocked her. Somebody had moved logs and used them to spell out "HELP" on the ground. Gee did not realize her family had decided to stay behind and ride out the storm.

Gee's 80-year-old grandmother had evacuated but her aunt, uncle and a family friend remained and became trapped after Michael passed.

"I didn't think it was really going to work... But luckily enough, my uncle, who was staying there and was thinking outside of the box, wrote the word H-E-L-P out." she told ABC News.

"The hurricane has turned everything upside down everywhere," she said. "Some were more fortunate than others. I'm just happy that everybody is safe and sound and, hopefully, soon we will all get through this together and recover from this storm."
